Mnr will change the way issuer do licences Starting want in November 2018 MNR will take back their equipment from issuer (right now they supply everything)They now want issuer like myself to:buy our own Computerbuy our own printer-toner and paper and will give issuer a commission of 75 cent per item soldTo me it looks like they don't want small issuer to sell licence.What do you think?

ive been buying my license online for years now. 3rd or 4th time. ive done it since 2014? they mail you your outdoors card. cdn tire is 5 minutes from my house but I just buy my license online and print the temp license at work. easy peasy

If none of the outfitters sell licenses any longer I wonder what out of province or country folks will do for licenses? A lot of times they rely on local bait shops or outfitters for the licenses. I would imagine they could get them online in advance but don't know for sure.

Non-res will always have a way to get it. No way the government is giving up on that cash cow. I hunt in Quebec and they have restrictions on what their residents can hunt with according to the courses they have taken. Non-res walks in. Hand over your hundreds and hundreds of dollars for your tag and no questions asked. Hunt with gun/bow/crossbow. Don't even have to show that you have taken a hunting course. Although, this year they are restricting non-res moose hunters to only use an outfitter for the most part. But that is also to get more tax money. With the handling of the moose population in Ontario hunters are flocking there.

Michigan has a great system for non-resudents- online license for $11 a day (actually 24 hrs), no need to print, just show pdf if asked. Awesome.

There are people who are living/staying (permanently or temporally) in relatively remote area (such as at a cottage/resort area) with NO internet access, and with no cellphone service/coverage. So sorry buying your fishing license online is then not an option!:-)

this is an issue. my guess is the permanent residents will have to go into town to get it. inconvenient but reality

for temp residents getting it before hand... every time you go fishing, you always prepare before hand (organizing gear, re-stringing reels, the never ending spending on lures and baits), just add your license to it. you can always go to a public library to print it off the receipt and temp license.

Living like this is a choice. These folks should be used to having to drive to get things done once in a while. I have no sympathy. Just jealousy! haha.
